OK..for a normal query, i.e. one table involved, primary key included in
the output set, set RequestLive true and you'll get the xxxSQL properties
automatically created - and active DML buttons.

For datasets that wouldn't otherwise be able to be "live" (joined sets,
unions, selectable SPs, non-updateable views) write parameterised
executable SPs to do the DML and use the xxxSQL properties for their
EXECUTE calls. Then the dataset will be "live" and the DML buttons on the
updatebar will be awake.

You'd better be quick - a lot of us are taking off for Fulda, Germany in a
week or so (Firebird conference). :-)
